Fodor's Review:

Come here for the view and a bit of history. The 285-acre spread, dedicated to educating the public about agrarian culture, has 2 mi of trails along Jamestown's southwestern shore with amazing views of Narragansett Bay and North Kingstown. Thomas Carr Watson's family had worked this farm for 190 years before he bequeathed it to the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities when he died in 1979.

Cost: $3
Open: June-mid-Oct., Tues., Thurs., and Sun. 1-5
